Charleston surface find......need I.D.

As the title says. Has two metal wheels the size of a nickel that are held in place by a peened pin. Looks like the backside would possibly mount/clamp onto something.

On walk in ice box's and walk in freezers they have a catch like that to hold door open.

I was thinking maybe the rollers that go opposite the cutting wheel on a pipe cutter.

Welcome Beauregard. Cool item. Be curious to see it solved with another one like it. Welcome to the forum!

Thank you. I was thinking it might be a old pipe cutter too when I first saw it but the two wheels are almost identical in thickness and diameter to a nickel which wouldn't cut butter. I have found a couple of clay marbles, jars full of pottery shards and a couple of old bottles in the same vicinity so I was hoping for more excitement than a ice box/freezer door stop!

Reminds me of a roller assembly for cutting a bottle but I suppose it could cradle a bottle neck for tooling purposes as well.
